A new york court of appeals overturning the Lower Court Ruling that originally stopped the administrations 2017 moved withhold great money for many state that refuses to cooperate with federal immigration laws. Earlier this month attorney general william barr announced sweeping sanctions against leftwing sanctuary cities that jeopardize domestic security. The doj spokesman wrote about that ruling, todays decision rightly recognizes the Lawful Authority of the attorney general to ensure department of justice grant recipients are not thwarting federal Law Enforcement priorities. This welcome news for Law Enforcement like maryland sheriff Chuck Jenkins who told laura in the last night how long theyve been dealing with criminals who shouldnt be here in the first place. This has been affecting us for years prior to them declaring sensory status we were single, global and, criminal illegal aliens come up from, and pg counties, leading to frederick county, weve been dealing with a crime. There is a push back. Bill diblasio vowing to take this fight back to court, he writes Donald Trumps latest retaliation against his hometown takes away security funding from the number one terrorist target in america all because we refuse to play by his arbitrary rules and the latest ruling very well could go to the Supreme Court as it conflicts with sanctuary rulings from other appeals courts across the country.

Donald trumps Reelection Campaign is working on courting black voters by setting up urban outreach centers, we told you about these, 15 black voices for Trump Community centers will set up shop in 7 states. The Campaign Says these centers will highlight how the president s policies of the africanamerican community, these centers are in addition to 300 Trump Campaign offices. Democrats to sitting on South Carolina as the crucial president ial primary looms and it is a make or break states were black voters are expected to cast 2 thirds of the ballot and joe biden once told a strong lead finds his surge there is shrinking. Which candidate has the upper hand heading into saturdays contest . President of operation reset and South Carolina congressional candidate mark burns joins us to weigh in. Thank you for joining us, we appreciate it. Let people know a little bit about your background. You were actually a lifelong democrat before you met donald trump. What changed . I was a lifelong democrat, i voted for president obama twice, proud to see our first africanamerican president but it wasnt until i met donald trump in new york about two or three weeks after he declared his presidency that he showed me the importance of black community and the Democratic Party has used our vote and his policies when elected would change the lives of black america low income families and proven everything he has done has proven to be a blessing to black communities. Jillian we will get to who will win the general election in South Carolina but lets talk about the primary saturday. Answer if you think this is true. Among the candidates, the Democratic Candidates who understands the needs and problems of black voters a lot was the question and biden coming in 57 , top fire 48, sanders 41. This is a make or break state for biden. Do you agree with this paul and wide using democratic voters feel this way . I agree with this polling. Black americans are extremely loyal to president obama so President Biden has a strong connection to president obama. Just yesterday president obama released a statement condemning South Carolina tv stations for running a trump and condemning using president obamas voice attacking joe biden. It is clear president obama swooped in to remind the black voters of South Carolina the joe biden is still his man and we need to be rallied behind him. Tom steyer spent a lot of money on the ground. Clearly black folks are realizing if joe biden doesnt win, he needs to win strong to continue his race, tom steyer could be a clear second choice. The fact of the matter is bernie is scary to a lot of black people. Bernie talks a good game but the fact is he doesnt show how he is going to get these things done and once again, if they choose Bernie Sanders they get all these promises but get letdown like they always have in the past which is why donald trump is surging with black votes, he has proven hes doing what he said he is going to do. Shannon in terms of the general election who would voters in South Carolina supported the general election with donald trump on the ticket . Let me word that a different way, democratic choices, who would have the best choice running up against donald trump in South Carolina and as we talk about that lets talk about what happened in 2016 where we had clinton, Hillary Clinton coming in at 89 and donald trump at 8 . Could it be that lopsided this time around . What i do know is this, the fact of the matter is if joe biden is the nominee black voters are going to vote, black South Carolina voters are going to vote for joe biden. They would not vote for Pete Buttigieg, the fact of the matter is this is the deep south, the bible belt and many black americans are questioning his Sexual Orientation is a big challenge for many black leaders in the southern belt. If joe biden is the nominee black voters will vote for joe biden but the fact of the matter is donald trump is surging, crazy numbers in the black community, black Household Income have increased 2. 6 in 2018, that is the highest level in 20 years, black poverty rate has a new record low including 8 in 2018. That means 350,000 black americans are no longer living in poverty under donald trump. Even the failing New York Times just admitted we are going to talk a little more about the New York Times and the issues they are having with donald trump but thank you for joining us. You went i was born in hartsville, South Carolina so i know a thing or 2. Thank you so much. Appreciate you joining us.

New york citys own naked cowboy getting a primetime audience, primetime mention we should say and tuesdays democratic debate. What is right for new york city isnt necessarily right for all the other cities otherwise he would have the naked cowboy in every city. Lets get serious here. The naked cowboy his name is robert burke told the New York Post he thought was cool bloomberg mentioned him but he still supports donald trump. He went against the billionaire for mayor in 2009 and later dropped out of the race. A little trivia point. Facebook cracking down on fake ads promising you protection against the coronavirus. Tracy carrasco is here with how the social media giant is trying to save you from getting scammed. Facebook is cracking down on those ads that promote a cure for the coronavirus. Also cracking down on as the create a sense of urgency like limited time supply and also trying to stop the spread of misinformation and fear mongering on the platform. The extended this policy to their marketplace where people can sell and buy items, they dont want people scared and by certain ads they see, this comes after facebook said they would stop any spread of conspiracy theories or false information on facebook and instagram. They have Fact Checkers and even Health Experts that go through this information that is flagged for misinformation. The time is 15 minutes until the top of the hour. The Trump Campaign suing about a russia conspiracy. That is not an opinion. It is more than an opinion. Heather the New York Times from a long court battle. The paper ignored proof and joins us live with the evidence. When you move homes, you move more than just yourself. Thats why xfinity has made taking your internet and tv with you a breeze. Really .

The New York Times have a lot wrong over the last number of years so we will see, let that work its way through. If you will read it is beyond an opinion, it is more than an opinion, they did a bad thing. Donald trump doubling down defending his campaigns liable lawsuit against the New York Times and says there is more to come. The times firing back saying they are ready for a court battle. Lets talk a little more about this, thank you for joining us. We appreciate it as always. Lets bring up a headline out of this hotbed, the real trump russia quid pro quo is what was called, said there is no need for detailed electoral collusion, they knew about the quit and held out, the prospect of the quote. What is the campaign arguing here. We are arguing the New York Times knew that was false when they published that piece. They are alleging there was an obvious and clear quid pro quo arrangement between the Trump Campaign and the russians. Hillary clintons email in exchange for light treatment and the eventual Trump Administration against russia. That was notably false and the proof that we offer is that there were articles already published prior to publication of this piece in question but would have required the New York Times to look into the pages of a muscular publication known as the New York Times, they printed articles that directly contradict what this piece alleged and that is the basis of their argument, they printed this knowing it was false and defamatory and contradicted their own reporting and this is done with malice to harm the campaign and that is the basis of our lawsuit. To damage the campaign and the timeframe you are talking about is important to look at. This piece published on march 20 seventh 2019, just before the Mueller Report was released in april and just days after William Barrs summary of it so you are arguing it is no coincidence. Know it is not, the Mueller Report would have immediately contradicted what the pieces alleging, never mind that, stories that appeared in the New York Timess own pages in months and years before this piece appeared directly contradicted with this piece alleges so the New York Times knew it was false at the time they published it, they knew was malicious and it was done with intent to harm the Trump Campaign. The New York Timess response to the lawsuit, they see the Trump Campaign has turned to the courts to punish an opinion writer for having an opinion they find unacceptable. The law protects americans, we look forward to vindication or vindicating that right in this case. Max frankel was a former executive editor of the New York Times but lets move on to something going on, just kicked off, you spoke last night at sea pack under the banner of america versus socialism. For those who maybe dont know what sea pack is a little about the importance of the event. A large gathering of conservatives, the theme of socialism, dangers of socialism versus our system of capitalism and entrepreneurial freedom and that is what is going to be on the ballot this november, the clear record of accomplishment on behalf of all americans, versus what comes out of the mess with the government socialism. It is about freedom on the president s agenda versus government control of every day life on the democrat side and that is what we are talking about, matt schlapp was a frequent guest on yours and other programs puts together a great show every year and it was an honor and pleasure to be there. We love having matt join us as we enjoy having you, thank you so much. The time is 5 minutes until the top of the our. What is worse, going to the dentist, Spring Cleaning or flying on a plane .
